The urban modules matter more than the national envelope: 68.4 % of composition variance sits within countries (COTEE, H4). Live from Expert · pipeline 17 Aug 2026.

The science in the report

How Jordan is read — COTEE, meta-organization, gender, AEEI

A country report does not add up a score. It reads the ecosystem as a cultivated order: the soil (rule enforcement) conditions what the seed (actors present) and the gardener (built support) can produce — then measures the meta-organization, gender inclusion and the AEEI pillars on the same grid.

COTEE profile

Soil · seed · gardener

Enforcement 0.24 (rules enforced); built support 48 %, base endowment 41 %; 27 % of actors created by the State or donors; 4 urban modules on 158 actors. Expected creation 6.4 new firms per 1,000 adults under the current, enforced regime: the soil already lets the seed and the gardener pay off.

Meta-organization

Architecture × substance

Coverage CI 100 % (world 100 %); functional differentiation FDI 0.90 (world 0.87); service redundancy SRI 2.55 (world 2.01); VRIO coverage 0.25 (world 0.21); effectiveness EES 0.72 (world 0.72); network density 0.218. The report then applies the readings — resilience-adjusted redundancy, governance vs endowment, form vs substance, three-mechanism index — to Jordan.

Gender

Aligned Gender Index × supply

AGI 40/100 (economic 38, social 44, representation 39), rank 144 / 176 globally; 0 women-focused structures out of 160 actors (0 ‰). Read next to the continental picture: mean 49, social dimension weakest (19/100), economic strongest (64/100).

AEEI × Stam's elements

Composite, pillars, COTEE re-reading

The AEEI covers 54 African countries (30 ranked); where a country is outside its scope, the report documents the ten elements of Stam & van de Ven from the OSE base and open statistics instead.
